Vehicle Technician – Independent Garage
We’re working with a well-established independent garage looking to add an experienced Vehicle Technician to their close-knit team following a recent departure. This is a great opportunity to join a stable workshop where technicians are genuinely valued and tend to stay long-term, with the current team all having 4–5+ years’ tenure.
The Role
Working as part of a team of 4 technicians, you’ll be responsible for a wide range of mechanical work including:
- Cambelts
- Clutches
- General servicing & repairs
- Mild engine repairs
- Diagnostics (desirable but not essential)
They’re looking for a true all-rounder who’s confident working across varied jobs rather than being pigeonholed.

- Minimal paperwork — technicians are trusted to get on with the job
- Friendly, long-standing team environment
Requirements
- Solid hands-on experience as a Vehicle Technician
- Able to complete a variety of mechanical jobs independently
- Background from an independent garage preferred

What’s on Offer
- £35,000 – £45,000 per annum depending on experience
- Loyalty bonus (~£1,500 paid in December)
- 20 days holiday + bank holidays
- Support with MOT licence if not already held
